Galatians:1

rsv@Galatians:1:1 @ Paul an apostle--not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead--

rsv@Galatians:1:2 @ and all the brethren who are with me, To the churches of Galatia:

rsv@Galatians:1:3 @ Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

rsv@Galatians:1:4 @ who gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father;

rsv@Galatians:1:5 @ to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@Galatians:1:6 @ I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and turning to a different gospel--

rsv@Galatians:1:7 @ not that there is another gospel, but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:1:8 @ But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we preached to you, let him be accursed.

rsv@Galatians:1:9 @ As we have said before, so now I say again, If any one is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed.

rsv@Galatians:1:10 @ Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:1:11 @ For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man's gospel.

rsv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ.

rsv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it;

rsv@Galatians:1:14 @ and I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers.

rsv@Galatians:1:15 @ But when he who had set me apart before I was born, and had called me through his grace,

rsv@Galatians:1:16 @ was pleased to reveal his Son to me, in order that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not confer with flesh and blood,

rsv@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned to Damascus.

rsv@Galatians:1:18 @ Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas, and remained with him fifteen days.

rsv@Galatians:1:19 @ But I saw none of the other apostles except James the Lord's brother.

rsv@Galatians:1:20 @ (In what I am writing to you, before God, I do not lie!)

rsv@Galatians:1:21 @ Then I went into the regions of Syria and Cili'cia.

rsv@Galatians:1:22 @ And I was still not known by sight to the churches of Christ in Judea;

rsv@Galatians:1:23 @ they only heard it said, "He who once persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy."

rsv@Galatians:1:24 @ And they glorified God because of me.
